<p>By passing a function to <code>filter</code>, you can fully customize filtering items. Shuffle will iterate over each item and give your function the element and the shuffle instance. Return <code>true</code> to keep the element or <code>false</code> to hide it.</p>

<h3>Example</h3>
<div class="code-block">
  <pre rel="JavaScript"><code class="language-javascript">// Filters elements with a data-title attribute with less than 10 characters
shuffleInstance.filter(function (element) {
  return element.getAttribute('data-title').length &lt; 10;
});</code></pre>
</div>

<h3>Searching</h3>
<div class="code-block">
  <pre rel="JavaScript"><code class="language-javascript">// Advanced filtering
Demo.prototype.addSearchFilter = function () {
  document.querySelector('.js-shuffle-search').addEventListener('keyup', this._handleSearchKeyup.bind(this));
};

// Filter the shuffle instance by items with a title that matches the search input.
Demo.prototype._handleSearchKeyup = function (evt) {
  var searchText = evt.target.value.toLowerCase();

  this.shuffle.filter(function (element, shuffle) {
    var titleElement = element.querySelector('.picture-item__title');
    var titleText = titleElement.textContent.toLowerCase().trim();

    return titleText.indexOf(searchText) !== -1;
  });
};</code></pre>
</div>
